Pin 1 is connected internally to Pin 8.
Auxiliary Port Signals and Pinouts
Use the thin, flat, RJ-45-to-RJ-45 roll-over cable and RJ-45-to-DB-25 male DCE adapter (labeled
"MODEM") to connect the auxiliary port to a modem. Figure C-4 shows how to connect the auxiliary
port to a modem. Table C-3 lists the pinouts for the asynchronous serial auxiliary port, the
RJ-45-to-RJ-45 roll-over cable, and the RJ-45-to-DB-25 male DCE adapter (labeled "MODEM").
